BC by the numbers

The number of visitors entering Canada via B.C. border crossings was up in June (+1.5 per cent, seasonally adjusted) for a fifth consecutive month. Similar to the growth among overseas visitors (+1.5 per cent), entries from the U.S. were up 1.5 per cent, with a drop in the number of overnight visitors (-0.6 per cent) partly offsetting an increase in those making same-day cross-border excursions (+3.9 per cent).
